The room was beautiful, comfortable and clean, and the location was perfect...basically right next to the Byward Market and a short walk from the Parliament buildings! We loved the fresh spa water available in the entry each day as well as the fresh fruit each morning.
My husband actually came down with a double ear infection during our stay and the staff helped us find a clinic that we could go to (we are from the States). They were so helpful and even printed directions to the clinic with the shortest wait time!
Great stay...even with a sick husband! :)

Great Location! Room was clean, beds comfortable, Pools and workout area clean and well kept! The staff was friendly and helpful. Parking was easy to use. I have stayed here many times and always had a good experience.

Check in staff courteous and efficient. Room was a nice size, clean and quiet. Was a little suprised to be charged extra for parking because it wasn't made clear when I reserved or when I checked in but it was only $20

This hotel is right in the middle of downtown Ottawa. You can walk to most anything, catch a cab if it is too far, and the bus service is excellent if you are bus literate. There are many great things to do there including museums and the Canadian Parliament. Lots of food in the Byward Market, shopping if you like that type of thing, and the history of the city all around you. Restaurants are everywhere around the hotel. I went for the Winterlude festival and found the activities very nice and probably unique to this area.

The hotel was positioned in the down town area convenient for all activities however the car parking facility was inadequate for the size of hotel, there were not sufficient spaces for the amount of guests that the hotel could accomodate. The hotel charged $20 per day for the parking but could not guarantee a space at weekends or during the July 1st celebrations. My wife and I who were visiting family in Iroquois had to check out on the Thursday and Friday, two days earlier than scheduled because of no parking space when we were to return on Thursday or Friday. There was no refund of monies for the two nights that we had to relinquish[...]The breakfast was not included in the price of the room and was available at a price. I would not stay at this hotel again based on the the above reasons.Dave Brown

The downtown Courtyard is the best location if you want to be centered in the Byway Market. Just step outside the door and you will be in the market. On the weekends the area is filled with street venders and there are numerous Bars , restaurants , diners , and shops. You can find great shopping at the Hudson Bay store or the Rideau center just a block away. The government buildings , center for performing arts , and many museums are located closeby. Just park your car underground at the hotel and forget about until you leave.
After six days of rain we went to Ottawa for the weekend. We ate every meal outside and saw some great entertainment.

My husband and I headed to Ottawa so I could run a 1/2 marathon. The hotel was in a perfect spot. We could walk to every running event. The staff was friendly; rooms were extremely clean and the jacuzzi felt awesome after my run.
